For the last 2 years, we've been hard at work on Rugby 20. We learned a lot from the mistakes we made with Rugby 18, and have spent this time rebuilding the game from the ground up, with a focus on controlling the flow of the play, and giving players the ability to make all sorts of tweaks in the heat of the match.
There's currently 10% off until the 30th January, with an extra 10% off if you owned Rugby 18.

*the 20% offer for Rugby 20 requires purchasing the game on Steam prior to the 30th January, and having Rugby 18 in your Steam library.
